The Duchess and the Devil
Chapter 10

Judith felt as though the suffocating feeling in her chest was alleviated at his consent. But it was very short-lived.

“Change the terms instead. With doing it whenever I want to do it, not only just now.”

In other words, he meant that he would have sex with her whenever he wanted from now on. Out of disgust, Judith bit her lower lip hard. Since she was a virgin, she would be lying if she said she wasn’t afraid of the unknown experience of sex.

But those thoughts were soon overturned. Rather, this may even be a good opportunity for her, just as Vinsen said. Judith decided to have Derrick’s baby, and if she planned to accomplish that, she had to have sexual intercourse with him several times, again and again, until she became pregnant.

“…Alright, I will.”

As soon as she reluctantly accepted it, Derrick had a pleasant look on his face. He immediately put her ankles over his shoulders. Both of her legs were raised up, opened widely, and as soon as those under the width of her skirt were explicitly exposed, Judith was startled and hit his shoulders.

“Your story comes first!”

At her dissuasion, like when he easily made a pleasant look on his face, he wriggled his eyebrows and changed to a displeased look. Because of that change, Judith was again convinced that the man in front of her was not her husband. Her husband wasn’t someone who would have various changes in his expression. Especially if it was in front of Judith.

“Damn it, I’ll die of hunger here…”

Derrick muttered irritatedly, yet he released her ankles that he had been holding onto tightly. Judith quickly slipped out from under him and tried to move to the head of the bed. But, it was impossible because he firmly pressed down on her shoulders as if he had sensed her intentions.

“Listen here. Don’t go running away.”

The smile he was giving her was quite delicate. Judith, who felt her heart thumping with anxiety, still listened to him carefully, curious about the story he would spin.

“As you’ve noticed, I’m not your husband.”

He stroked Judith’s apricot-colored cheek with the back of his hand. His unexplainably treacherous hand descended to her neckline and teased her caved-in collarbones.

“Derrick Mexillion.”

Soon, Derrick’s skilled hand skimmed down over her white cleavage.

“That’s my name.”

“Mexillion? I have never heard of such a family name…..”

“Naturally. Because it’s not a family that exists in the human world.”

‘Human world’. Judith frowned as she couldn’t understand his words, in which he called this land as if it was a different world.

“Because, I’m a devil.”

His words that he had finally added were enough to throw her into confusion.

“… What did you say?”

Judith became dumbfounded and pushed him with determined hands, raising her body to sit up. The front part of her dress was disheveled, revealing milky white skin, but she wasn’t in the right mind to pull it up. She couldn’t believe it since he mentioned the human world as a topic, but this man, she was certain he was telling jokes since a while ago.

“Are you telling me to believe those words right now?”

“Does it feel like I’m lying?”

“Where the hell in the world would something like that exist?”

“What, devils?”

He laughed at Judith, who couldn’t believe him, and ran through his hair. The outline of his appearance, which was revealed by dimmed light, was so splendid that her eyes were glued to him. But the most noticeable thing was his ruby-like eyes. The moment she looked into those eyes, she felt as though she understood his words, ‘devil’. It was a colour that gave her goosebumps; it made the hair on her body stand on end.

“Hhmm, will you believe it if I do it like this?”

Derrick lightly swung his hand in the air as he gave her a narrowed smile. Then, at his will, the lamps that were installed everywhere in the bedroom caught fire and the dark surroundings quickly became bright.

“Why did the lamps suddenly…… kya!”

Then, Judith became deathly pale at the scene of the oil lamps, which were placed on the closet, mahogany table, and other places in the room, rising gently and floating about in the air. It was a scene that was so incomparably dreary it really ought to have come out of a ghost story.

Derrick laughed and shook his hand once again when he saw Judith, who was frightened and was hitting his shoulder. Then, the flames, which had been blazing intensely, died down in an instant and all the lamps that were hovering in the air fell to the ground. The bursts of sounds that painfully pierced her ears continuously reverberated, and the bedroom was dyed in darkness again. Judith was stunned from the unrealistic and agitating scene that happened right before her.

“What was that just now? How did you do that?”

“If I’m going to put it simply to you humans, I can say it’s ‘magic’.”

She had heard that a mysterious force called ‘magic’ had been in existence, but it was the first time in her life that she had witnessed it with her own two eyes. Derrick nipped on the lips of Judith who was vacantly looking at him.

“Then, are we done now?”

“What do you mean we are done?”

Judith, who came back to her senses, noticed the front part of her clothes that had come undone and quickly crossed her arms to cover it. Despite showing that amazing power, he, who was peering down at her breasts like they were eye candies, clicked his tongue, tsk.

“If you are really a devil, why of all people have you gone into the body of my husband?”

“Cause, I’m trapped in this body.”

“You are trapped… who locked you in there?”

Derrick, who was patiently answering her questions, suddenly frowned at her. He questioned her with a look that said he didn’t like this a lot.

“I don’t feel like answering this obediently in particular, though? Whenever I give you an answer, you…”

Derrick reached out his hand and lifted up her slender chin. Soon that hand headed down smoothly and slid gently to touch around her chest that was barely covered.

“Unless you take off your clothes one by one or something.”

It was a voice that said that he had no intention of willingly giving her an answer if she didn’t take off her clothes.

“What is with that all of a sudden? Is it that you do not believe my words that I will do what you want?”

“I want to believe my wife’s words, though. But who knows, you might completely run away once you hear more from me? Humans are naturally cunning and greedy.”

“Of course, devils like me are much more wicked than them, though.” He added in a whisper, laughing.

Judith was at a loss for words. His attitude showed that he truly enjoyed the current situation.

“Devils are like that. I’m in a deal with you, so I am being thorough. If I give one thing, I’ll get one thing; if I give ten, you must give me ten, no matter what.”

Come to think of it, despite talking about the royal audience with the Emperor in the day, he was hoping for a reward instead of being there quietly for her.

“I think that the stories I’m unraveling one by one right now has a value of as much as the removal of my wife’s clothes?”

Despite personally disclosing the fact that he himself wasn’t her husband, he kept calling Judith ‘my wife’. At this point, she didn’t know who was really the cunning one.

Judith quietly looked at the man who was using her husband as a mask. His words that said he was a devil still wasn’t entirely believable. But seeing him handle a magical power before and the things that had happened to him so far – especially having lost his life and then being revived – could not be easily explained unless he was a devil. Furthermore, these talks seemed to have a connection as to why in the world her husband came back to life, so Judith wouldn’t stop here and had to find out about him until the end.

As she dampened her dried lips, she reluctantly came down to a decision.

“… Alright. Then do tell me the one who trapped you in there first.”

“There’s already a lot that I laid out to you. So my wife must take off her dress first.”

As he already said that he was a devil and even the fact that he was trapped in this body, he gently folded his two fingers. Judith wanted to immediately reject them, but eventually she removed her hands that were covering her chest, worried that she would ruin all the progress she made in the conversation that she had tried her best until now to prolong. As it wasn’t even enough to him, she directly undid the two remaining buttons and took the dress off, passing it through under her legs.

The passionate heat in his eyes began to appear. She was just wearing a chemise, so his bold gaze was fiercely piercing into her completely exposed skin like an arrow. She felt the tips of her breasts, where his gaze was sweeping over to, being firmly held together.

“The one who trapped me in this body was ‘Hannibal,’ a devil who belongs to the rank underneath mine.”

“Rank under yours?”

“If you want to hear my answer to that, strip off the rest.”

He gently touched her chemise and whispered.

‘Isn’t this exactly the temptation of a true devil?’

Judith quickly took off her chemise, wondering what was there that he would hesitate about when she had already completely taken off everything up to her dress. Then he blew a whistle and licked his lips. He was really like a low-class pervert.

“Even the devils have their own ranks. Ha, shit. I don’t think I’ll be able to hold back at all, so can’t I talk while I suck your breasts a bit now?”

T/N: ‘A bit,’ he says. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

“Have, have you gone insane?”

“Why, it’s all the same whether I eat it all at once later or eat it away little by little right now.”

He suddenly pulled her waist to him as he talked nonsense. He buried his face in Judith’s chest and ceaselessly licked her nipples that were sharply protruding. This time, Judith couldn’t even scream and covered her lips with her hand.

“Nng…..!”

She felt entirely different from him sucking on them compared to when she had her clothes on. The more he used his rough tongue and rolled it around as if eating them, the more her scarlet nipples firmly stood on end.

“Ha….. uhhhg.”

A stranger was sucking her own breasts. The pleasure coming from that fact was so intense that it was uncontrollable. How his tongue moved craftily, it was to the point that she didn’t know whether the one that was rubbing them was a person’s tongue or soft cream.

Derrick sucked at her nipples, even making a sucking sound like a child looking for milk. The sight before her was tinged with a glint of light every now and then from the pleasure that was spreading from the tip of her breasts.

“You won’t ask the next question?”

He asked with pronunciation that had become slightly muffled as he put her nipple in his mouth. His grin was gently permeating from the way he spoke. Judith, who slightly gasped, came to her senses from his voice and opened her mouth, stammering.

“Why, whew, why is it that you are suddenly doing this? Until a while ago, ahhhg…!”

“Can’t hear you.”

Only

On purpose, whenever she continued talking, he would cut her off with his act of thoroughly ravishing her nipples, biting softly and then stopping. Each time, a cold shiver lingered from the top of her head to the tip of her toes.

“Until a while ago…… You were, alright…… Haaang!”

Clearly, he was fine when she met him in his office during the day. He had the rationality that enabled him to distinguish between right and wrong. But when it became evening, he confined himself in his bedroom, and when Judith showed up, didn’t he completely lose his rationality and seduce her?

“Hmm. Did you notice that?”

He, who chuckled, took his lips off from her chest and strangely stimulated her nipples with his fingers. Judith lowered her gaze with a face that was extremely flushed. Her breath was coming out roughly.

”There are two reasons. First of all, the more it approaches nighttime, the stronger the devils’ instincts become.”

Derrick’s fingers stroked her thighs, then, like a vine, began to penetrate into her secret inside.

“Second, it’s because of the kiss I had with my wife.”
